I’ve always enjoyed pierce brosnans acting and he has accomplished much indeed! He has played many different individuals and he does so flawlessly. I was very impressed with his ‘one woman’ life choice and heartbreaking that he lost his first wife as well as his daughter to ovarian cancer. That’s very hard to say the least! It’s so awesome that he has found TRUE love again with a beautiful equal partner with Keeley and I will add she is so gorgeous even with the extra pounds altho it’s awesome that she brought it down for certain. It gives me such a warm feeling to see this couple enjoying their lives with each other along with the added pleasure of children and all that goes with that aspect. I hope that they enjoy many more years together as well This article has only added to my respect for pierce! Thankyou and keep up the good work!
